More Than 70 Killer Effects with Drums and Looper

Crafting great-sounding guitar tones has never been easier, thanks to Zoom’s G1X FOUR multi-effects processor. Add dimension and polish to your playing with more than 70 traditional and boutique effects. Achieve real-time control over volume, wah, delay, and pitch effects with the integrated expression pedal. Dial in everything from squeaky-clean to high-gain tones with 13 classic amplifier and cabinet models. Keep the beat with 68 built-in drum patterns, while you create multi-part arrangements with a 30-second looper. The G1X FOUR allows you to use up to five effects simultaneously, and you can save up to 50 user-created patches for instant recall. The value-packed G1X FOUR is great for practice and performance alike.

Stomp on 70 traditional and boutique effects

The Zoom G1X FOUR comes loaded with more than 70 traditional and boutique effects. Add dimension to your sound with delays and reverbs. Give it a polished sheen with a chorus, flanger, or phaser. Or reach for something more esoteric like a ring modulator, pitch-shifting delay, or a sitar simulation — it’s all in there. There are also 13 classic amplifier and cabinet models onboard, covering everything from squeaky-clean tranquility to high-gain anarchy. Use up to five effects simultaneously, chained together in any order. And when you’ve got everything dialed in, you can save up to 50 user-created patches.

Get inspired with 68 built-in drum patterns

Metronomes are great for keeping time, but they’re not very inspiring. That’s why the G1X FOUR includes 68 built-in drum patterns. These great-sounding rhythms give you plenty to jam along to, boasting multiple time signatures — 4/4, 3/4, and more. When we ran the G1X FOUR through its paces here at Sweetwater, we found the built-in rhythm patterns to be one of our favorite features — they’re a lot of fun!

Craft multi-part arrangements with a 30-second looper

Built-in drum patterns are great for keeping the beat, but they don’t do much for harmonic context when you’re practicing. But thanks to the Zoom G1X FOUR’s onboard looper, you can lay down a chord progression, loop it, then play over it. You can record and loop up to 30 seconds of CD-quality audio, which is more than enough to craft dynamic multi-part arrangements. And don’t think that the usefulness of the G1X FOUR’s looper is limited to practice sessions — it’s an awesome performance tool too!

Massive fun-factor - Easy to use - Affordable - The perfect "first guitar pedal" for beginners

For several years now, my pedalboard has had only ONE guitar "FX" pedal. First it was the G1Xon. Now it's the G1Xfour. I play both acoustic AND electric thru the pedal, and they BOTH sound great! Though I've played for over 40 years, I'm not a professional musician and rarely play out; but I do play a lot at home and IMO this is the best VALUE "name brand" guitar multi-FX pedal on the market. It's super affordable, very easy to use, sounds terrific, and is a total blast to play. In fact, this is the FIRST of TWO guitar pedals I recommend for every novice guitarist. Checkout my video links below for a quick start on G1Xfour pedal, and why it's one of the two first pedals I recommend.

G1X FOUR W/EXPRESSION PEDAL

Sweetwater had me Rockin' in minutes with this awesome pedal from ZOOM. Its versitile and the effects sound great! Add a Rythym to a loop and away you go,soloing and adding infinite over-dubs. Its great for practice at home or whereever you need quality sound and options.Everything has adjustments for Sound,Tempo,Loops and a built in tuner. Add an external audio device and Jam to that if you want. It has an empty bank to create your favorite patches linking up to five effects each and the built in effects are cool and get you going fast. So if you are hooking up to an amp,mixer,cellphone,laptop or other audio interface this pedal has you covered. Guitar Lab is easy to use and intuitive. All adjustments are a click away and best of all its fun to use. Sweetwater is amazing!

Zoom G1X Four

I am an old dog trying to learn new tricks. A complete novice. Sweetwater has made the attempt far easier than I could have imagined. This effects pedal affords me the opportunity to sound more proficient than I am. That is a nice break from the frustrations of beginning guitar. I am certain that as I improve this pedal will do more than I can envision. I love all 3 elements of my setup.

ZOOM G1X FOUR beyond my expectations!

I got to say this ZOOM G1X FOUR is way more than I expected! I am just an amateur at guitar but I play for churches and other small events and I just wanted to have something that I could practice with a beat and some other music (looper). I am fascinated by all the different styles and sounds this product brings to the table. I am a Hendrix freak and as I told Damian at Sweetwater in Fort Wayne the Jimi Vibe is spot on! I have found that I plan for more time practicing just because this ZOOM G1X FOUR gives me a broader spectrum of styles and sounds, not to mention it has unleashed my imagination to what I truly am capable of playing. Thanks again to Damian and the Fort Wayne IN staff!
Music background: Playing for my churches and on my front porch for my neighbors for 20yrs.
